Plastic Fantastic: Tamiya 1/20 Lotus 99T - 3
http://joeangersiii.blogspot.com/2013/08/tamiya-120-lotus-99t-3.html
Sunday, August 4, 2013. Tamiya 1/20 Lotus 99T - 3. Quick update for today. Managed to spray gray primer onto the monococque. The plan is to spray it gloss black, apply the decals, and then clearcoat with flat black. Also, I joined the Classic Plastic Model Club. And have to say my motivation has gone through the roof. I had a lot of fun at my first meeting, and I'm really looking forward to taking part in my first show in October. August 5, 2013 at 3:46 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Tamiya 1/20...

Sunday, August 18, 2013. Tamiya 1/20 Lotus 99T - 4. Managed to make some progress on the Lotus. The last couple of weeks, I'd been working on painting and decalling the monococque. In my last post I had managed to get it primered and start placing the bare metal foil to simulate the rivets. The next step after that was to paint it. I had originally planned to use aftermarket decals, but my impatience got the better of me and I went with the decals from my original issue Lotus. However, I had forgotte...

Sunday, June 30, 2013. Tamiya 1/20 Lotus 99T - 1. Alright, so my first kit in my "Back to Basics" approach will be this 1/20th scale Lotus Tamiya 99T. Believe it or not, that's an original issue Lotus 99T. Even has the original tobacco decals. This will be my one deviation from box stock. The original decals have yellowed pretty significantly, and the blue faded. So I'll be using aftermarket decals for the kit. The bodywork is fairly straightforward. I glued the radiator ducting to the main body. While w...

Plastic Fantastic: July 2013

Sunday, July 7, 2013. Hasegawa 1/72 Macross VF-1A Max TV Custom - 2. Like with the Lotus, the heat made getting any painting done really difficult. With the Valkyrie, I manage to prime the exhaust nozzles. I also applied Mr. Surfacer 500 to the areas were deep scratch marks from sanding were visible. I'll sand it down with 800 grit before applying another coat of priming and painting them with Metalizers. Also found this pic on the internet to illustrate the look I'm going for. Again, that's it for now.

Sunday, August 18, 2013. Hasegawa 1/72 Macross VF-1A Max TV Custom - 3. After thinking long and hard about it, I decided that I would cut half the cup that the outlets sit in, then assemble the leg. You'll also noticed that I abandoned the idea of adding a ridge to the end of the outlets. I simply peeled of the pieces of styrene, cleaned it up, and scribed in new panel lines where the ridge would have been. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). There was an error in this gadget.

Sunday, June 30, 2013. Hasegawa 1/72 Macross VF-1A Max TV Custom - 1. I've also started working on the 1/72 scale Macross VF-1A by Hasegawa. I'm a huge sci-fi and anime fan, and Macross is one of my favorite animes. I'll be building this to represent Maximilian Jenius' custom colored white and blue VF-1A. Again, sticking with my "back to basics" theme, this will box stock (mostly, as you will see below). I filled the seam with a putty made from super glue and talc. And the sanded result. I love using...
